However, Wei Changying's wish to bully his brother again after several years of separation was put on hold six days later, the road from Fengzhou to the imperial capital was taken by stragglers, the treasury was ransacked, and the officials below the county magistrate were all killed by the stragglers!
The news reached the court, and all the officials were outraged!
Taibao Su Pingzhan was initially pleased, after all, it was a reasonable opportunity to increase and advance troops.
But he was not happy for two days, counting on the court to make the Qingzhou army rushed to assist the official documents of the Exclusion County is still on the road, Qingzhou eight hundred miles of urgent, because of the obstruction of the Exclusion County and even the use of pigeon mail message let Su Pingzhan a few want to vomit blood Siamese invasion!
...... more than ten years ago Su Pingzhan's a clan brother in order to seal the title, fabricated reasons all the way to the Siamese capital of the left, along the way masonry dozens of Jing Guan, killed Siam's vitality is greatly injured. That time the Su family captured countless, in accordance with common sense, Siam at this time the national strength has not been restored, does not yet have the ability to invade Wei.
This non-availability, of course, is looking at Wei as it was a decade or so ago.
Now this small southern border country is obviously looking at Wei's internal and external problems and has come to take advantage of the fire.
Moreover, I don't know whether it is inquired that the northern part of Wei is facing the pressure of the Northern Rong army, Siam actually also presses the whole country's military strength this time. The Su family was caught off guard, not only killed and injured many of the clan's border guards, and even lost several cities, and even the neighboring state of Qingzhou, the first town of the southern border of Zezhou state has been besieged!
In this case, even if the master wracked his brains, Su Pingzhan also did not hesitate to send out the heart of the guards, mounted on their own mounts overnight to go back to the previous one to let the Qingzhou army to exterminate the rebels in the county of exclusion of the official document, changed immediately back to help Qingzhou!
As soon as the Qingzhou army left, Wei Changfeng and his party, who had come to the imperial capital to welcome the bride, were extremely awkwardly blocked behind the Exempted City.
This is not only the Wei family private soldiers in the end Cheng Ping day long, even if the training diligently, the first time on the battlefield is inevitably busy, but also because Wei Changfeng this trip to the capital is to receive the bride, even if you know that the road is not peaceful with a lot of private armor ...... But, who can think of receiving a bride but also to attack the city ah?
It has always been the case that if the attacking side of a city is to be successful, there must be more people than those defending the city.
But now who can compare the number of private soldiers with the number of stragglers?
Moreover, the lives of the stragglers were as cheap as grass, and the private soldiers that the Wei family carefully raised were very precious in comparison as long as Wei Changfeng had not lost his head, then he would definitely not allow the private soldiers to go and attack the Exempted City without any siege equipment.
The city is a must-go route, and if you don't go through here, you'll have to take a detour of nearly a thousand miles.
Nearly a thousand miles away is still a small matter, the key is that the exempted county can be occupied by the stragglers, if we detour, who knows whether we will meet almost the same thing again? After all, the civil unrest is everywhere now, and the stragglers are raging.
If you don't want to go that far around, there are paths in between. However, the paths are not accessible to vehicles and horses, and even people have to be careful and cross several dangerous places to pass through. This kind of place can only send a few messenger servants to try, even if successful, after the county to the imperial capital there are still hundreds of miles of road, this road may not be much more peaceful than the county.
In this case, no one dares to ask Wei Changfeng to walk this path ......
Therefore, Wei Changfeng could only stop very awkwardly outside of Exclusion County, in and out of the dilemma.
The news reached the imperial capital, the Imperial Master and other people's sideburns have become white again, under the discussion, because Shen Xuan to the capital city near the peace, need to Western Liang army auxiliary imperial forest army to defend the capital city as the reason, refused to let the remaining 20,000 Western Liang army recapture the exemption of the county. Therefore, the Imperial Master had no choice but to send someone to explain to Su Xiuqin and Princess Ling Xian the Princess and her wife, because their daughter is already old and the wedding date is set, are single-mindedly looking forward to their son-in-law coming to the Imperial Capital, since they received the news that Wei family's wedding procession was blocked by the stragglers, they have been running around almost day by day on all the family's doorsteps in the hope of helping Wei Changfeng to pass through the county of豁县.
But now that the Shen family is pressing on with their troops, there is no hope for the imperial guards the Rong people are attacking His Majesty has refused to ask the imperial guards to spare a single soldier, not to mention whether or not the wedding of the granddaughter can be held as scheduled.
Therefore, the princess couple is full of chagrin, but there is nothing to do, can only send people to send a shortcut to Wei Changfeng send a letter, so that he first returned to Fengzhou. Wait until the exclusion of the county this channel was opened and then on the Beijing ...... both sides of the wedding date has been set, Su Nianchu this has been considered the Wei family, in case Wei Changfeng in the exclusion of the county underneath the wait ah wait, that many of the stragglers, called this son-in-law have any long and short, Su Nianchu this life is not the end of the line?
In the middle of this period, Princess Ling Xian invited Wei Chang Ying over to talk to her, mentioning that the Shen family still had 20,000 Western Liang troops in the capital. But Wei Changying could not do anything about it. According to her selfishness, of course, she also hoped that her brother could start a family as soon as possible, so that he could have his own family. However, although the Western Liang Army belonged to the Shen family, it was not her turn to make decisions.
Besides, about not sending Western Liang army to Kua Xian to pacify the chaos, Mrs. Su also told her that nowadays the world is not peaceful, leaving an army in the capital city will make the whole family feel more at ease. Moreover, attacking a city is not like defeating an enemy, because of the critical terrain of Kua Xian, even if the city wall is not as high and thick as Yan Zhou, and the trench is not as deep and wide as Yan Zhou, it's not that easy to fight down.
What if the Western Liang army is trapped this time?
When it came to this, Wei Changying could only say yes even if he was sorry.
So this happy sibling reunion was spoiled before it even started.
This situation, the most embarrassing and helpless most aggrieved is of course Su Nianchu. She also has nineteen, set a wedding date but was disturbed by the current situation, can only continue to live in the mother's home, the real woe.
Although this can not be said to be the fault of the Wei family, but Wei Chang Ying or special opinion on her side, will be married to the bottom of a pair of gold inlaid jade mandarin ducks bracelet to her, said the Wei family heirlooms "Listen to my grandmother said, this is my high grandmother at that time got a piece of good jade, looking for artisans to do. After that, it has been passed down from generation to generation in the Wei family, and when I went out to the court, my grandmother took pity on me for marrying far away, and made an exception to put them in the dowry. Originally, I wanted to use them as a congratulatory gift after you passed away, and return them to the Wei family. But now Changfeng is blocked by the displaced people, can't come for a while, you and take it first, just as a remembrance."
Originally Su Nianchu see this pair of bracelets jade clear as the moon, craftsmanship is extraordinary, resting in the box, vaguely there is a sense of jade and gold gas dense radiance, is not to be excused. But now I heard is the heirloom of the Wei family, but hesitated.
Wei Changying persuaded her, half forcing and half cajoling her to accept it, and then comforted her with kind words before leaving.
After she left, Princess Ling Xian came to see her daughter, saw this pair of bracelets, and heard that the Wei family heirloom things, but because of the old lady Song spoiled her granddaughter before letting her take out but Wei Chang Ying, although she could not bear to brush off the elders' feelings, but also do not want to take advantage of the mother's family this cheap, so Su Nianchu to pass through the door, to give things back! --The princess was very happy and put on the bracelet for her daughter, examining the color of her wrist, saying, "You don't have to take it off, just wear it like this."
Su Nianchu was a bit reluctant to part with it, "Sister, she said it's an heirloom of the Wei family."
"What's that got to do with it? It's not like you're not careful." Princess Ling Xian saw her daughter rubbing the face of the bracelet, obviously quite impressed, pursed her lips and laughed lightly, "Although this thing is good, it's not like our family doesn't have it. But because it's the Wei family's heirloom bracelet, and it's personally sent over by Mrs. Wei, that's why it deserves special attention. But Mrs. Wei said, your husband can't come to the imperial capital for a while, she sent this pair of bracelets to you in advance to do a remembrance, you don't wear it, hide it in the box, what kind of remembrance is it?"
Su Nianchu think about it ......
When Wei Changying returned to the Tai Fu Mansion, before he could sit down for a cup of tea, he heard another bad news Shen Shuguang was almost bitten by a mastiff!
Tai Fu House this large residence, although the guards like a forest, but many times manpower is not as good as animal power, so in order to look after the gateway, the outer courtyard also raised more than ten mastiffs of different breeds, are swarthy and ferocious temperament. This kind of mastiff Wei Chang Ying has never seen, but also heard of, each head of limbs on the ground, are higher than Shen Shuguang.
Mastiff running to guard the house to go is to strive to fierce, to the power of the Shen family more do not have to consider in case of a person to bite things to the end. So, slow to say small children, even adults, by this kind of dog bite alive is not a strange thing.
When Wei Changying heard this news, he was scared out of his wits! The whole person was not well!
The servant who came over to report the news was busy saying that someone happened to pass by and saved Shen Shuguang, and that Mr. Ersun was doing very well several times before Wei Changying came back to his senses and ran towards the upper room like a madman!
When I arrived at the upper room, I didn't have to be informed, but when I went in, I saw that there were many people in the hall, and several figures were kneeling under the hall. But Wei Changying didn't have the heart to pay any attention to it. With a glance, he saw that Shen Shuguang was being held in his grandmother's arms with a tear-stained face, and his expression of shock hadn't yet faded away.
Noticing his mother's arrival, Shen Shuguang's somewhat dull gaze only turned for a moment, and with a wow cry, he broke away from his grandmother's embrace and flung himself into his mother's arms, his small hands tightly pulling on the train of her skirt, crying so hard that his voice changed.
Wei Changying was heartbroken and annoyed, so he took hold of him first, then gave Mrs. Su a cursory bow, and touched his son's whole body to find no injuries, then he was slightly relieved. Then she looked at her son's shocked appearance in her arms, and her eyes were full of fear, showing a little bit of stagnation, and she didn't reply to any of the questions, but just hugged her hand harder and harder she couldn't hold down the anger in her heart, and she hugged Shen Shuguang tightly, and raised her eyes to ask ''Mother, what's going on? What's going on here? Hasn't the mastiff always been in the outer courtyard? How could it have almost bitten Guang'er? Could it be that Guang'er ran away to the outer courtyard?"
She went out originally Shen Shuguang in Jintong courtyard, let people watch not allowed to go out of the courtyard. But Mrs. Su thought that there was a small pool in Jintong courtyard, although it was not deep, and the subordinates would keep a close eye on it, in the end it was not safe enough. So she insisted that Wei Changying send Shen Shuguang to herself when she went out. Although Shen Shuguang was naughty, he was still naïve because of his young age, and he was mainly pampered, but he had not yet gotten into the habit of bossing around and forcing his subordinates. The subordinates in front of him were not crazy and would bring him to the outer courtyard.
How can this still happen with a near-mastiff bite?
Because he was worried about his son, Wei Changying was agitated at the moment, and his tone was clearly questioning.
It was just that at the moment she didn't have the heart to care about Mrs. Su's mood.
However, Mrs. Su was now sympathetic and did not rebuke her questioning, instead she sighed and said ''Heng'er this sinner! Luckily Zhu Lei even passed by, otherwise ......" Here, she coldly looked down the hall.
Following her mother-in-law's line of sight, Wei Changying realized that among the people kneeling in the hall, the one at the head was her youngest brother-in-law, Shen Jieheng's biological mother, Miao, and the one kneeling at the back was Shen Jieheng, and the two of them were stealing glances at themselves with trepidation and caution.
